Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Warm and wet with abundant fertilizer during the spring and summer months with a short winter rest.
Comments: Parent plant: This is an heirloom division of the 1972 CCM plant labeled "Stanhopea wardii 'Taylor el Toro" which has recently been identified by Christenson as S. embreei. Once established in a basket, it is a rampant grower and reliable bloomer. This year, it has produced seven inflorescences over a period of three months averaging four flowers per inflorescence. Very large plant.

Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask. You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.
You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.
You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had. |
